ACTON -- Two men were arrested on drug-distribution charges Tuesday after a search of their vehicle resulted in the discovery over 50 oxycodone pills and almost $5,000 in cash, according to a Police Department spokesman.

Ruben B. Solage, 27, of Lunenburg, and Jimmy I. Good, 27, of Leominster, were both charged with possession of a Class B substance with intent to distribute, possession of a Class B substance and conspiracy to violate the controlled substance laws, Acton Police Deputy Chief Richard Burrows said in a press release.

On Tuesday night, according to Burrows, and detectives with the drug unit stopped a vehicle on Route 2 for speeding, which was operated by Solage.

Based on "observations" made by the detectives, a K-9 unit from Littleton was called to the scene, the vehicle was searched and the narcotics and cash were discovered, according to Burrows.

In addition to the drug charges, Solage was also charged with operating with a suspended license, speeding, and operating negligently.
